Item 8.01 Other Events.

On February 18, 2011, Richard A. Montoni, President and Chief Executive Officer of MAXIMUS, Inc. (“Company”), entered into a pre-arranged trading plan (“Plan”) under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Rule 10b5-1 permits the implementation of a written plan for selling stock at times when insiders are not in possession of material nonpublic information and allows them to sell stock on a regular basis and in a non-discretionary manner regardless of any subsequent material nonpublic information they might receive.

Under the Plan, over the ten-month period from March 2011 through December 2011, Mr. Montoni may exercise up to an aggregate of 120,000 stock options and sell the shares thereby acquired subject to certain pre-established conditions, including subject to the market price of the Company’s common stock.

The aggregate 120,000 stock options under the Plan represent a portion of 225,500 stock options awarded to Mr. Montoni on June 20, 2006 and are scheduled to expire on June 20, 2012. The Plan is intended to facilitate personal financial planning through the orderly exercise of the options and the sale of common stock before the expiration date of the options, with the goal of minimizing the market impact and avoiding any concerns about the timing of the transactions. Following the sale of those shares under the Plan, Mr. Montoni will still retain a substantial ownership position in the Company. The term of the plan extends through December 2011 unless terminated earlier under certain circumstances.
